In this paper the authors present a new approach to detect, localize, and investigate the feasibility of classifying various types of power quality disturbances. The approach is based on wavelet transform analysis, particularly the dyadic-orthonormal wavelet transform. The key idea underlying the approach is to decompose a given disturbance signal into other signals which represent a smoothed version and a detailed version of the original signal. The decomposition is performed using multiresolution signal decomposition techniques. They demonstrate and test the proposed technique to detect and localize disturbances with actual power line disturbances. In order to enhance the detection outcomes, the authors utilize the squared wavelet transform coefficients of the analyzed power line signal. Based on the results of the detection and localization, they carry out an initial investigation of the ability to uniquely characterize various types of power quality disturbances. This investigation is based on characterizing the uniqueness of the squared wavelet transform coefficients for each power quality disturbance.
